If you’re a newbie to the scooter world it can be a challenge to pick a model that is suitable for you. The best starting point is an e-scooter that is 4 mph, which offers the comfort of the car boot model, but comes with a larger frame and more powerful batteries than an all-terrain model that is 8mph.

This will offer the fastest mode of transport. If, on the other hand, you want a scooter that is able to travel longer distances before needing a recharge, you can select models with a long range that come with a battery lifespan of up to 30 miles.
The capacity of your scooter’s weight is another factor to consider. If you are an obese person, it is best to choose a heavier-duty scooter that can handle more weight and negotiate more difficult terrain. Heavy-duty scooters usually come with larger wheel bases and sturdy tires that enable them to negotiate obstacles like curbs and steep hills.
The final thing to consider is the design of your mobility scooter, which can depend on the type of environment you’ll be using it in. For instance, if you’re going to be using it in the city it is possible to choose three-wheel models with a small base and a tight turning radius, making them ideal for maneuvering in tight spaces. A four-wheeled vehicle with a big base and wide-track tires is better suited for off-road conditions.
